The Bulls had been playing well, looking for their first four-game winning streak in forever. But they ran into the champs and could not really compete. Behind the 37 points of Anthony Davis along with a double double from LeBron James, the Lakers raced out to a big lead in the first half and never looked back.
Zach LaVine led the way with 21 points and four Bulls scored in double figures. But the Bulls were poor offensively, turning the ball over 18 times and only scored 33 in the first half. They were cold from the field, shooting just 39.
